Well, its not that much the structure, but the fact that its old, and 
useless unless your a windows guy. I want something that works 
cross-browser (and by that i mean Ie/Safari/xxx).

A last question, is there any options to make GUI programming easier, 
and faster. A tool like Ruby On Rails, just for GUI programming?
Even though ruby doesnt demand as much lines as c++ for an example, it 
is still many lines you have to write before something happends when you 
use GUI tools.
 - alright, i have an other tiny question: Can _you_ suggest any GUI 
tools, that are up-to-date that you have tried?
